Hi all, Please help with hair algae issue:
1. The thank is 6 months old
2. It was started with 22 KG's dead reef rock (not 'cooked' before inserted, only rinsed) and 18 KG's of aragalive as substrate
3. Waterflow consists of 1 WP40, 1 5000l sunsun and 4000l /h waveline DC return pump
4. Lighting are LED's and switches on at 07:00 and off at 17:00
5. Nitrates are below 3ppm, phosphates showing 0 but probably gets consumed by the algae , using salifert kits
6. Carbon and ammonia stones in small reactor
7. TS2 skimmer, very aggressive skimming
8. Water : we are buying water due to the fact that our RO/DI unit only produces about 1L /day. The other day I noticed that the water we are adding has a TDS reading of 100 something (can't remember exact measurement), is this the culprit to our problem?
9. Feeding 2 frozen cubes every morning
Any other questions about the tank ask away or go check out the tank at : KSreefster and Pcs's 650 cube
